Time for New Carb Flange
« on: January 31, 2016, 01:43:34 PM »
I thought I would share a photo of the carb flange off of our 78 Intruder.  This engine was re-built in 2004 with carb flanges from Parts Unlimited.  The steel in the flanges was pretty soft and it bent easily and I remember being unsure of whether they would work acceptably or not.  Well, I am pleased to report that they worked for 11 years.  And, even though they look pretty ugly, they were not leaking - yet.  The flanges are being replaced with new Mikuni carb flanges courtesy of New Breed Snowmobile Parts.
Intruders:  1978, 1979, 1981 Custom (Pink)
Invaders:   1980 440
Projects:    1981 Invader 440

I wonder if the same company makes them?
